UPS Power consumption/commands -- Shell

[djdwosk97]

Is there a shell command that I can use to see what the output of my UPS is? I'm curious to know how much load it's under during various times. The one thing I've found is the APC specific package that I'd rather not have to install if I don't have to. (it's an APC UPS)

Code:

upsc ups

//doesn't show any information about the output of the unit.

Does upsc ups@localhost ?

 

[djdwosk97]

Does upsc ups@localhost ?

That doesn't show any output information. It shows battery status information, driver information, and input information.

/And I read that the UPS is capable of showing what the power draw on the unit is (it's an APC ES 750G)

I made my life easier by just getting a UPS that says the draw right on the front. :)
